THERE ARE ONLY SO MANY WAYS (AND GAGETS) TO EXERCISE THE HUMAN BODY.
UNTIL RECENTLY, I HAVE AVOIDED THE “UP” EXERCISES…. AVIDLY….. WHETHER THE GRIP WAS PALMS IN, PALMS OUT, PARALLEL, WHATEVER. JUST NEVER LIKED THEM, PROBABLY BECAUSE THERE’S NOWHERE TO CHEAT ON THE DEAL: YOU’RE EITHER POWERING UP AND DOWN AGAINST GRAVITY OR YOU’RE NOT.ES
AND NOW— THE NEW TRUTH! PULL UPS ARE ESSENTIAL. THERE ARE SO MANY NEEDY MUSCLE GROUPS TO GET INVOLVED. NO MORE EXCUSES! SIMPLE DOOR-MOUNTED GEAR IS DECENT. YOUTUBE IS LOADED WITH INSTRUCTION IF NOT DOGMA (MUST HAVE THE DOGMA).
START OUT WITH EASY TONING MOVEMENTS LIKE INCLINE PULL UPS. PROGRESS SLOWLY. IN CLASS LAST NIGHT, A NEW STUDENT FINISHED 15 INCLINE REPS. SHE WAS BEAMING: “I HAVEN’T DONE A PULL UP…… IN YEARS!” SHE WAS MOTIVATED… AND NOT OVERWHELMED. SUCCESS.
I RECENTLY PURCHASED THE MIGHTY WALL MOUNT VERSION FOR THE SD STUDIO. IT WILL TEST THE BEST. NOW WE HAVE SOMETHING FOR EVERY LEVEL OF PULL UP ENTHUSIAST. HEY, IF I CAN DO THIS THING — SO CAN YOU!
